Silver Mountain

[Verse 1] Up there on Silver Mountain That's where I'll wait for you Up there on Silver Mountain Up where the sky is blue [Verse 2] Your books I used to carry When we were back at school I had a girl I wanna marry I won't rest until I do [Chorus] Will you meet me by the river? Where the current runs dark and strong I know your daddy's waitin' So I'm comin' with my guns on [Verse 3] Up there on Silver Mountain Where the folks are easy to laugh Up there on Silver Mountain As long as you don't cross their path [Chorus] Will you meet me at the river? I'll take you for my bride Tеll your daddy that I'm comin' I ain't leavin' 'til I'm satisfied [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] Up wherе the Silver River Rushes over the roots of that big oak tree On the banks at the end of the river We stood here, your dad and me [Chorus] Hello John, I plan on leaving here with her It's a good day as any to die My blood mixed with the clay of the river I saw your face against the sky Goodbye, my sweet love, goodbye
